That was well done by Obama to quickly correct his own error.

I hope it gets widespread media play.

I don't think this case involved profiling by the police. I think it's impossible to say if it involved profiling by the person who made the call, but I wouldn't want the police just to ignore calls because the suspect was black. I actually think that would be worse for black people than it would for others. Didn't Public Enemy have a song about that? Eh, nevermind, 911 Is a Joke is more about ambulance response times, it seems.
